How It Works

Step 1. First you simply start a scan.Step 2. Kaspersky AntiVirus analyzes your files and when our software finds a suspicious file, it passes the fingerprint to our Cloud Scanning Platform where many different anti-virus engines perform checks. Milliseconds later, our Cloud Scanning Platform marks the file as safe or malicious, or else asks Kaspersky AntiVirus to upload it for further examination.Step 3. Kaspersky AntiVirus rapidly sets about removing any confirmed malicious software.

Proactive Detection of Unknown Malware

The latest Kaspersky technologies proactively seek out suspicious activity on your system—without draining performance. Potential threats are monitored and analyzed with real-time, cloud technologies, and dangerous actions are completely blocked before they can cause any harm

Anti-Phishing Defense

Phishing attacks are becoming more common, and much more tricky. It’s increasingly difficult to know if an email is really from your bank, for example, or a cybercriminal trying to lure you into revealing confidential information. Kaspersky uses cloud technologies to update and reference an online database of phishing websites in real-time, and proactively analyzes URLs, so new phishing attacks are caught as soon as they emerge. You can be confident that your digital identity is always safe.
